Offended By The English Flag? The EDL Over Exaggerates

We know the English flag should be respected, but a small minority of people haven’t really been too respectful in the past. Rather than condemn it, many EDL supporters have become quite intolerant and tell people who don’t like it, just to ‘go back home’, like this particular (bad quality) picture shared on Facebook.

"OH MY GOD IT'S AN ENGLISH FLAG I CAN'T LOOK AT IT!"

The EDL and its supporters must think realistically. Its true that there have been some cases where the flag has been told to be put down, but this is only a small incident. It’s not even on a mass scale. And neither does it give the justification to tell people to ‘go back home’. That would be outright rude.

People getting ‘offended’ by the English flag has become some sort of fear mongering hype. And sadly, the gullible fall for it.
